Getting to Know Your Wherifone G500 Series
GPS Locator Phone
Main Display
Important information about the status
and features of the Wherifone appear in
the main display. There are three types
of displays on the Wherifone:
Icon Display:
The top icons show the vital Wherifone functions.
Scrolling Display: The middle line is scrolling text that indicates
carrier, locate, and other status information.
Message Display:
The bottom line shows the date and time during
regular use.
Signal Strength
The number of bars in the Signal Strength icon indicates the strength
of the GSM network signal the Wherifone is receiving. More bars mean
a stronger GSM signal. The Wherifone uses the GSM network for all
communication activities: making calls, receiving calls, receiving pages,
receiving location requests, and sending location reports to the Global
Location Service Center.
If the signal strength is low or non-existent, your Wherifone may not
be able to receive a location request, send its location information, or
make incoming or outgoing phone calls.
